Class Minutes: Wednesday, March 31st
After writing the ACT III quiz, we did a choral reading of the first few lines of ACT IV. Students played the role of the witches, whistling wind, hooting owls, and howling dogs. One student flashed the lights on and off to create the illusion of lighting. Act IV.i was read to completion. As we read, we filled out the first three rows of the three visions chart. Students then worked on their recipe assignments (due Tues.) or the comprehension questions for the first scene. Happy Easter!
